alterlab-imaging-data-commons
From the author
Query and download public cancer imaging data from the NCI Imaging Data Commons (IDC) using the idc-index Python package, filtering by metadata, visualizing in-browser, and checking licenses, with no authentication required. Use when obtaining large-scale radiology (CT, MR, PET) or digital pathology DICOM datasets for AI/ML training or cancer imaging research. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.

- imaging-data-commonsjaechang-hits/SciAgent-SkillsQuery and download NCI Imaging Data Commons (IDC) cancer radiology and pathology datasets via the idc-index Python client. No authentication required: the parquet index ships inside the pip wheel, SQL runs locally via DuckDB, and DICOM downloads stream from public S3/GCS buckets through s5cmd. Use sql_query() for DuckDB cohort selection, get_collections/get_patients/get_dicom_studies/get_dicom_series for hierarchical browsing, download_from_selection() for downloads, and get_viewer_URL() for OHIF/Slim links. Use pydicom-medical-imaging for local DICOM reading; histolab for whole-slide pathology preprocessing.Data★ 383

- alterlab-cosmicAlterLab-IEU/AlterLab-Academic-SkillsAccess the COSMIC catalogue of somatic mutations in cancer to query somatic mutations, the Cancer Gene Census, mutational signatures, and gene fusions (authentication required). Use when curating known cancer driver genes, looking up recurrent somatic mutations in a gene, or interpreting mutational signatures for cancer research and precision oncology. Not for germline pathogenicity calls (use alterlab-clinvar) or interactive cohort visualization like OncoPrints and survival from study data (use alterlab-cbioportal).

Use when fetching a standardized benchmark dataset, applying scaffold or cold-split evaluation, or sourcing labeled molecules for ADMET, toxicity, or DTI modeling. Sources data, splits, and oracles only — defer molecular featurization (ECFP/fingerprints), model training, and transformers to alterlab-deepchem or alterlab-molfeat.
